Europe Gears Up for the Exascale Software Challenge with the 8.3M Euro CRESTA project
Press Release about CRESTA
The first exascale supercomputers are expected to arrive at the end of this decade. These systems must deliver an exaflop - or a million million million calculations per second. A new consortium of leading European sites has come together to meet the challenge of delivering software to support and exploit these massive systems.
HPCWire on future HPC development
HPCWire highlights a report written by EPCC on Europe’s future HPC development and its economic importance to the region.
The authors echo many of the arguments made by other global organizations—that the key to competitiveness in coming years hinges on HPC and more specifically, on modelling and simulation.
